शाम्यतां परलोकस्थं काः किलायान्ति वासनाः ॥ ११ ॥

ayameva paro loko bhāvyatāṃ vāsanākṣayaḥ |
śāmyatāṃ paralokasthaṃ kāḥ kilāyānti vāsanāḥ || 11 ||

Know this as the next world, by suppressing your desire for a future one; rest calmly in your celestial soul even here, nor let your desires range from here to there.
